Introduction

Illustrator is a vector graphic editing program by Adobe. This booklet is designed to introduce you to

the essential skills you will need to get started using some of the basic Illustrator tools. These instructions were created using Illustrator CC 2017 for Windows; the Mac Sierra version is similar.

About Vector Graphics

Vector graphics are made up of lines and curves called vectors. They are resolution-independent, meaning they can be scaled to any size and printed at any resolution without losing detail. You can move, resize, or change the color of vector objects without losing the quality in the graphic.

Learning Objectives

After completing the instructions in this booklet, you will be able to:

Recognize Illustrator terminology

Locate tools, panels, bars, and windows in the workspace Learn how to use the pen, selection, line, pencil, basic shapes, eraser, and shape builder tools

Create text by itself or on a path of an object

Save files in different versions or formats
